You can create a reference to an automated test script residing
at a shared location. When you run the test script, Quality Manager makes
a copy of the test script and runs it on a local test machine.
Before you can reference a test script from a shared location,
an administrator must make the shared resources available.
Note: Each test
tool implements its own integration with Quality Manager. The instructions
provided here may not cover all of the details of each integration. Be sure
to refer to the specific test tool for further details.
